Sold: Sako 75 IV action bolt lock replacement kit

I don’t suppose anyone has one of these kits that needs rehoming? It’s the firing pin assembly, spring, locating pin and bolt shroud. I should add it needs to be stainless too.

It’s the season of miracles so you never know

Brownells may stock them, but be prepared for open wallet surgery

Thanks but not on Brownells.

You can get away with just the bolt shroud if you don't mind the tail of the bolt protruding beyond the end of the shroud, I purchased two of these from GMK a couple of years back through my dealer.

Sadly , this is not the case any longer as i have been trying to get a replacement bolt shroud for my sako75 for the past year , GMK are not interested, i have even contacted sako direct , who said they would try and find one , but i am still waiting.

Pretty sure you need to replace the firing pin too
They are available
Let me get some part numbers and see what they can do

Cheers Ed, when I’ve done III Actions before it was pin, spring, shroud and little locating pin doohickey

Ed, I would be interested in one too, for a action 111 (243) stainless.

No need to replace the firing pin unless for cosmetic reasons, the only difference between the keylock and non keylock version is that the tail part is slightly longer on the keylock to accommodate the longer bolt shroud, otherwise they're identical. As long as you don't mind the tail of the pin protruding beyond the new shroud when uncocked (and want to save yourself a 100 quid), your current firing pin will function as normal. I replaced only the shroud on both my Sako 75's with no problems over many years.

Are the keys a universal fitting, or specific to the individual rifle ?

The actual key bit is specific to the rifle
